As soon as he entered the empty hall, the iron beads on the compass immediately returned to moving aimlessly everywhere, which meant that there was no grievance nearby. how so? Xu Chuan was shocked. Just now, the compass had clearly indicated that there was something abnormal in the library, but now he had made a contradictory judgment when he came in. The compass was installed in strict accordance with the process, so there should be no mistakes. What did its abnormal reaction want to reveal? Could it be that... there is really something weird in the library? ! Xu Chuan, who was completely puzzled, carried the iron plate around in every corner of the hall. Sure enough, the iron beads made no movement at all.
Is it upstairs? Xu Chuan carried the iron plate and headed towards the stairs. At this moment, he felt an increasingly louder vibration coming from his right hand, and at the same time, a slow and sharp sound roared out. The iron beads on the compass suddenly rotated crazily around the circle inside the compass. The violent centripetal force made Xu Chuan's right hand gradually lose control of the compass. Before Xu Chuan could react, the speed of the iron beads suddenly increased to the limit, broke away from the control of the circle, and began to hit the compass like crazy. The sound of "ding-ding-ding-ding-ding" echoed in the empty library. It was endless, with layers of echoes, which seemed particularly harsh. Xu Chuan's face changed drastically, which was caused by the level of spiritual energy far exceeding what Luo Pan could bear.
"Chi!" With a sharp scratching sound, the iron bead broke free from the speed limit of the compass and shot outward. Xu Chuan had quick eyesight and quickly grabbed the iron bead in his hand. At this time, Xu Chuan's curiosity reached its highest point. He wanted to see how powerful the resentment could be to force the compass that had been invincible since he came out of the mountain to malfunction, and the dangers he would encounter were almost out of his mind. Just as Xu Chuan was about to stride up the stairs, the most bizarre thing happened. Suddenly, a shrill scream came from the library: "Help!" The voice lingered, frightening Xu Chuan's whole body. In this late night, does anyone dare to stay in this weird atmosphere? He sprinted up the stairs and shouted sternly at the top: "What kind of ghost is showing its teeth and claws here? Come down and die quickly, otherwise don't blame me for being ruthless!"
There was suddenly no sound from above, and everything was quiet. Scared away? Just as he was guessing, there was another noise upstairs. A "plop-plop" sound like a heavy object falling to the ground came from far and near. It seemed particularly terrifying in the moonlight in the dead of night. Xu Chuan couldn't help but pinch something in his hand. Breaking into a cold sweat, he rushed up the stairs to take a closer look. However, before he could take a few steps, he suddenly noticed that the color of the upper part of the stairs had changed a bit, and something liquid was slowly flowing down each step. Come down. 7
poison? Xu Chuan was greatly surprised. He quickly jumped back a few steps and waited for the opportunity to develop. The thing gradually and steadily flowed towards him, all the way to the last step. With the dim light, Xu Chuan was able to identify what the thing was. In an instant, his pupils suddenly expanded! That was blood—dark red human blood with a fresh fishy smell! The entire staircase was heavily covered with that sticky substance, and a bloody staircase spread out in front of Xu Chuan that he had never seen before in his life!
The plopping sound just now was... Thinking of this, Xu Chuan finally moved his attention away from the bloody stairs. It was important to save people! Without any hesitation, he ran upstairs with big feet, letting the blood splash everywhere. As he expected, there was a bloody man crouching at the corner of the stairs. Xu Chuan hurriedly bent down and asked urgently: "How are you? Can you still hold on? I'll call an ambulance." Suddenly, the bloody man stretched out a bloody hand and grabbed his ankle tightly. Chuan felt the air-conditioning hit him. The coldness seemed to have penetrated into his bones, making his body shiver. He was so frightened that he quickly jumped away and said, "Just tell me if you have any unfulfilled wishes." The bloody man slowly raised his head and happened to face Xu Chuan's face. In an instant, Xu Chuan held his breath and lost his voice in horror. On his bright red face, where the two eyes were originally, there were only two large black holes, from which blood was flowing continuously. Horrifying turbid blood. His eyes! His eyes were gouged out! Even though Xu Chuan was brave, he gasped at this moment and staggered back two steps. Could it be that all the blood and the bloody stairs were caused by this? Xu Chuan pointed at the bloody man and stammered: "You... yours Eyes..." The bloody man seemed to be struggling to raise his right hand and pointed at the corner of the second floor. He used his last strength to shout: "Quick! Quick! The terrible bloody curse has been resurrected!" Xu Chuan's eyes widened. : "Blood Curse? What Blood Curse?!" The bloody man seemed to want to say something else, but he just waved his hand feebly in mid-air, and then lay motionless on the ground. he died. Died on a staircase paved with his own blood. What kind of murderer is so cruel
Xu Chuan looked at the second floor. There was silence, and there seemed to be a fishy smell floating in the air. Spreading out in front of him was another layer of darker blood-colored stairs, which meant that there were people ahead. With this in mind, Xu Chuan no longer had time to think about what the bloody curse was, and ran up to the second floor.
Xu Chuanping didn't like borrowing books, and he tried his best to search online for any information he wanted. Therefore, he didn't come to the library a few times, and only went to a science library. So he took a special look at the library in the corner before running to it. There was a brass sign nailed to the wall, with four large characters clearly written on it: "Social Science Library."
As soon as he ran to the door, Xu Chuan heard a strange "chichi" sound coming from inside. It seemed that someone was mopping the floor with a heavy mop, but it had a sharper and sharper feel. Xu Chuan stopped warily and tentatively poked his head into the door: "Is anyone there?" No one answered, and the weird sound continued. Seeing that he could not get an answer, Xu Chuan had no choice but to walk into the door. It turned out that there was a layer of white curtain covering the door. No wonder the people inside could not hear his question. What age are we, and we still have such old-fashioned white curtains! Xu Chuan was a little helpless about what the library was doing, but it was too late for him to think so much. He opened the curtain, stuck his head in and asked: "Is there..." But this time, he only stopped halfway through the question. . Because he saw a horrific scene that even he couldn't believe and suspected he was still dreaming about - a scene that was bloodier, thicker, and crueler than the Blood Staircase! Xu Chuan, who had been trained for a long time, felt like vomiting when he saw blood for the first time in his life.
There were more than a dozen people crawling on the ground, no, dozens of people! Their faces were filled with twists of extreme pain and despair, and their mouths were open wide, as if they were shouting at the top of their lungs, but Xu Chuan could not hear a sound, and the silence around them was even better than it should be for a night. The longing for death overflows in everyone's eyes - life but longing for death. Is this the hell on earth in myths and legends? That blood! Xu Chuan finally noticed where so much blood on the bloody stairs came from. Yes, how could only one bloody person roll out such a spectacular bloody staircase? Almost as far as the eye could see, red liquid was pouring out of everyone's abdomens, densely surrounding the entire library floor. Xu Chuan seemed to still be able to feel the heat and energy brought by the blood. However, it seems that everyone is not afraid of pain, and is struggling wildly and crawling around like they are escaping from some pursuit. What is left on the ground are all messy and shocking blood stains, and even more, there are blood stains with broken internal organs. It turns out that this is why the weird mopping sound comes from! ! Xu Chuan completely turned into a sculpture, unable to think about anything. Only one word repeatedly appeared in his mind: "Madman! Madman!"
A spooky wind passed by from the side. Xu Chuan's whole body was shaken. He slowly turned his head away. He saw a counter on his left hand slowly drifting away. Xu Chuan's pupils suddenly widened. The wall blocked by the bookcase It was being revealed little by little, and on the white surface, there were four big red letters written: "Blood Curse"! "Quick! Quick! The terrible bloody curse is resurrected!" The warning sound of the bloody man at the corner of the stairs was still in his ears. The grandeur and grandeur of the bloody stairs were still in front of him. Xu Chuan looked at those four words and took two steps back in fear. Splashes of blood stained his shirt. He wants to escape! Run away far away! Just when he had this idea, the library door slammed shut tightly. He was completely trapped and died in this confined space controlled by an inexplicable bloody curse!
If you don't resist, you will die! Or long for hell like the people on these earths! Xu Chuan held up the compass with trembling hands, but before he could recite the incantation, a blue-white hand suddenly stretched out from nowhere and grabbed his shoulder! In an instant, a cold moisture quickly spread from his head to the soles of his feet. Xu Chuan stiffened and did not turn around to see whose hand it was. He could only see blood dripping from the bluish-white nails. , stained his white shirt red, and the long flying hair that kept gently teasing him from behind. "Ding" The compass in Xu Chuan's hand fell heavily to the ground, and the iron ball rolled far away, and finally fell into a pile of blood and disappeared without a trace. The blue-white hand had slowly touched Xu Chuan's face, and the strong smell of rotting corpses hit his nostrils. The crisp "ding" sound stimulated Xu Chuan's nerves and called back his sanity. At that moment, he thought of too many doubtful points: the stairs, the bloody man, the social science library, the brass sign, the yellowed walls, the white curtains, and the bookcases... These fragments and pictures were in his mind. Everything was running through his mind rapidly. The moment the hand was about to hold his face, Xu Chuan closed his eyes and took a deep breath. At the critical moment, he finally saw through all the mysteries! !
"The divine light appears in the distance, and all the demons escape!" A burst of dazzling white light suddenly burst out from the pocket on Xu Chuan's right chest, and spread out in all directions. After the white light, there was silence, surrounded by the pleasing light yellow tiles. Xu Chuan was standing in front of a closed door. Next to it was a piece of granite with the inscription: "Ancient Books Library." Xu Chuan turned around to look at the stairs, and saw that they were so white that there wasn't even a scrap of paper on them.
The stair handrails in the library are hollowed out, so it is impossible for blood to get stuck on the stairs and flow down step by step, forming a bloody staircase. The social sciences library was abandoned by the school decades ago, and now there is only a liberal arts library. The division of labor, the yellowed walls, the white curtains of ancient colors that are no longer seen in the market, and the traditional Chinese characters banned by the state. Of course, the biggest doubt is that it is already late at night, and it is impossible for so many people to appear. A noisy scene where people are still in the library. The truth is that all this is just a momentary scene where the wronged soul reappears with the help of resentment! ! It can be speculated that some tragic murder must have occurred here decades ago, because the resentful souls who have no one to support them have accumulated hatred and jealousy over time. On the anniversary of the death of the disaster, they repeat the tragic scene of that day in order to vent their pain. However, it is strange. If there is a momentary scene in the library, looking at the condition of the hand, he also wants to kill himself, but why has no one been killed in the library before? Could it be that? Xu Chuan immediately thought of the pile of copper deer tongues. Could it be that it sealed the barrier here? In this way, you will become the first person to meet the scene of the moment.
However, when Xu Chuan walked around the library, he overturned this conclusion. According to the orientation of the five elements, this place and the place where the copper deer tongue is buried are basically a dead end. In other words, the buried copper deer tongue will not have any effect. Someone who can control so many copper deer tongues at the same time must be several times more powerful than him. How could he not understand the orientation of the five elements and make such an outrageous decision? The answer is most likely that the gathering place of grievances that Tong Lu Tongue really wanted to seal was not in the library, but that the boundary here was also broken due to Tong De Lu Tongue's overthrow. It was really a leak in the house and it rained all night. Xu Chuan sighed in his heart: The problem at Tonglu Tongue has not been solved yet, but there are a lot of things coming out here. It seems that this school is indeed in danger.
Xu Chuan took out a piece of white paper, lit it while throwing it around, and said loudly: "The lonely ghosts obey the order. I thought of you and died unjustly. God is fair and allows you to stay in the mortal world to redress your grievances." , but the grievances have their heads, and the debts have their owners. If you disobey the order of heaven and kill innocent people indiscriminately, it is against the justice of heaven. I will suppress you on behalf of heaven and enforce the law! I am hanging a bunch of white money here. I hope everyone will be safe and wait for what happens. Don't move rashly!" After the white paper was burned, there was a faint black air dissipating around him. Xu Chuan breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that he had finally suppressed it, and did not bother to stay in the library any longer, and hurriedly left to find the place where the seal was truly overthrown. What Xu Chuan never expected was that he would encounter the first terrifying legend on campus. It was this momentary scene that would lead to the chaos of reincarnation in the future, and a catastrophe that would cause the magic world to lose its troops and turn blood into rivers!
"Because this disaster caused thirty-six people, including the librarian, to mysteriously disappear, leaving only pools of blood and some body parts, it was called the 'Thirty-Six People Massacre' in history. Human blood flowed into the Bloody Staircase, which was a sensation at the time, so students privately called it the 'Legend of the Bloody Staircase Library'." Gong Yong put down his rolled-up sleeves and said, "This legend was popularized in the era of campus heroes. The ban lasted until the early 1980s. After deliberation by the Student Congress at that time, it was deemed that the legend no longer had the power to intimidate and could no longer cause unrest in the school, so..." Gong Yong looked at the file in Liu Canli's hand. It clearly reads: "Since the influence of the legend of the Blood Staircase Library has passed, it is now unsealed and included in the school's folklore research." Below is the seal of the Student Union in 1984. Liu Canli raised his head and said: "It's not that I don't believe you, but, Gong Yong, I can't understand why you dug up such an old legend? Could it be that you suspect that this accident is related to this legend? But Xu Chuan said those copper coins It has only been less than five years since Deer Tongue was buried." Gong Yong smiled faintly: "Even if this legend is resurrected, of course it is not related to it. I tell you this because I want to ask you, have you ever heard of it in this school? Is there a second terrifying legend that is as famous as the Blood Staircase Library?" Liu Canli suddenly frowned: "The second terrifying legend?" "Yes." Gong Yong's voice became solemn: "We I came in in 2000. This legend was banned by the student union in 1999. When I took over, all the files and materials were destroyed. I only vaguely heard my senior brother talk about it and it seemed to be about a small road." Liu Canli said blankly. : "Since it was banned in 1999, there is no reason for senior brother to know so vaguely." Gong Yong said: "According to senior brother, the legendary ban came very suddenly, and few people in their generation knew about this legend at the time of the student union. A ban was issued, but the senior brothers and sisters of the previous generations were very secretive about this legend, and no one wanted to talk about it. Therefore, this legend was slowly lost." Liu Canli said: "According to the student union's handling of the legend, Generally, you have to crack the legend and ensure that it will not appear again before you dare to ban it. That means that the legend should also disappear. In this case, what are you worried about?" "Is that so?" Gong Yong looked at it. The stars in the sky were lost in thought and said slowly: "But in the 1999 ban, the student union wrote this sentence: 'This is a plan for rights and interests.'"
Xu Chuan wandered aimlessly on campus and then wandered back to the library. It seemed that today was going to be a waste of time. Just as Xu Chuan was about to go home, the iron beads on the compass moved again. Xu Chuan perked up and followed the compass's instructions and turned into a nearby path. The iron beads were frozen at the exit of the path and the compass trembled slightly. Seeing the shadows of trees inside, Xu Chuan hesitated for a moment. Seeing that the sky was already a little white and he felt a little uncomfortable. Maybe he was frightened in the library just now, so he decided to go in again tomorrow. He happened to see a monument next to him, so he dialed After clearing the weeds, I walked closer, and under the dim moonlight, I saw three large dragons and phoenixes written in cursive calligraphy on the stele: "Cherry Blossom Road".
When Xu Chuan returned to the dormitory, his face was already white. When he tiptoed past his roommate's bed, a faint question came from the upper bunk: "Did you catch the ghost?" Xu Chuan sighed helplessly and said: "Chang Xiaojun, you are more energetic than me." Chang Xiaojun poked half of his head out of the mosquito net: "Have you found the source?" Xu Chuan said vaguely: "Well... I'm so sleepy, I want to sleep first. Sleep." After falling asleep, Chang Xiaojun leaned against the bed rail for a long time, dumbfounded and speechless.
Gong Yong and Liu Canli also stayed up all night. Their eyes were more or less bloodshot. Liu Canli yawned and said, "By the way, how is that guy Xu Chuan's investigation going? Chang Xiaojun, you Go and spy on him." Chang Xiaojun said: "I spied on him immediately, but he seemed to be too sleepy, and fell asleep with his head covered as soon as he came back. I saw that he was so tired, so I couldn't disturb him. But it doesn't matter. A senior brother will invite us to dinner tonight, and he will definitely go. I'll ask him when he comes back." Gong Yong closed his eyes and stretched a long way and said, "Don't worry, he is there anyway. I can't fly anymore." He opened his eyes and saw everyone staring at him and Liu Canli with strange eyes: "Chairman, Vice Chairman, are you okay?" Gong Yong smiled and said, "It's okay." He looked at Liu Canli narrowly and said : "I heard Canli say that he had a nightmare last night, dreaming of being chased by zombies. As for me..." "As for him," Liu Canli continued, taking a file and walking out of the office briskly: "What he did was 'Fragrant Dream'..." Chang Xiaojun suppressed a smile and glanced at Gong Yong, who was sitting helplessly at the table with his fingers crossed, lowered his head and walked out of the office.
"Classmates, we have to leave. Hurry up and see your senior brother, otherwise he will be very anxious." As soon as he returned to the dormitory, Chang Xiaojun couldn't help shouting excitedly. Xu Chuan, who had just woken up, was brushing his teeth and looked at him suspiciously and said vaguely: "You seem to be several times more excited than going to see the beautiful girl. I didn't know that senior brother is so charming. But don't worry, Even if we fail to make the appointment tonight, senior brother will not be impatient. Same-sex repels and opposite-sex attracts, you still don’t understand this truth, right?" Chang Xiaojun then realized that his attitude did seem a bit impatient. , unable to laugh or cry, he defended: "No... I just..." Xu Chuan glanced at him meaningfully, and said with a half-smile: "Haste makes waste, not to mention that you will definitely achieve it if you want it." Chang Xiaojun leaned forward and asked tentatively: "You won't let me reach you forever, will you?" Xu Chuan smiled and sprayed a cup of toothpaste in his mouth: "Maybe." "What? !" Xiao Wu, the roommate next to him, said inexplicably: "Hey, have you two been a little mentally disturbed recently? Why are you always saying weird things?" Xu Chuan quickly washed his face and said, "Okay. Now, I'm afraid of you, let's go, come back early after dinner, I want to play games."
When setting off, Xu Chuan hesitated for a moment as he looked at the drawer. He was wondering whether he should bring the treasure that his master gave him - the Qiankun brocade bag, just in case. Later, he couldn't help but laugh to himself, it must be for those gangs. The people in the student union were too nervous, but was it just a momentary scene brought about by a few innocent souls? I didn't bring this with me that night. I couldn't handle it easily. Who cares, the amulet on my chest is enough. However, Xu Chuan never expected that just because of his one thought, he would make a huge mistake, and things would turn in a direction that he had never expected. Another shocking mystery hidden deep behind the road of innocent ghosts gradually begins to surface!
